New work this morning, weave and color experiment in oil on art board.

Masked this with a vinyl stencil as I've been doing with other things recently; stencil worked well but was a pain to remove because of smooth surface of the art board and the fragile lines webbing those internal diamond areas together.

Had to basically pull 'em off one at a time with tweezers while trying not to smudge anything. Stencil topography/integrity: a thing.

That I was feeling far less hungover by the time I was finishing up than I was when I started is the main reason this didn't suffer some sort of catastrophic failure late in the process.

There *was* some angry cursing and wadding up and throwing away of the first vinyl stencil and a sheet of transfer paper as part of the bleary, Ow My Fucking Head portion of the process.
